I was born in an old farmhouse way out on the rural route
When I turned eighteen I moved out; on my own
I've t raveled here and I've traveled there, guess I've been 'most e verywhere, but
Bet your boots that once a year I'll be h eaded home.

When it's Christmas time in Dixie
The family gets to-g e-ther a-round the Christmas tree
When it's Christmas time in Dixie
That's where I want to be.

All that's moving in this town's them big ol'diesel trucks
So I made it to the interstate and I stuck out my thumb
When it's Christmas time in Dixie, that's where I'm gonna be.
